On Friday, Nov. 22, at 5 p.m., the Killington Cafe and Wine Bar opened its doors to the community for an invite-only tasting opportunity. Owner/General Manager Joe Cuozzo and partners James Sherman and Howard Levin welcomed guests into the cafe and bar and sought feedback. It was a packed house, with guests commenting on the atmosphere, the cheese charcuterie, meats, and wine.

Cuozzo said, “The menu truly reflects our collaboration, but the item I’m most excited about is The Transplant. It’s inspired by my move from New York to Vermont and features the best pastrami you’ll ever try paired with perfectly aged Vermont cheddar.”

The Killington Cafe and Wine Bar will celebrate its grand opening Wednesday, Nov 27.

The new café is located at The Woods, 53 Woods Lane in Killington.
